My hooked turned into my first TONU as a carrier! And probably won’t be the last either!

Is it harder to ask for aTONU fee as a carrier than it was as a driver ?
No not really! He was very apologetic for helping him out with the rush delivery. He asked me what I wanted, for our troubles. I did not want to take advantage of the situation. I like to build personal/business relationships, whether it be my direct shipping customers, the guys that drive for me, the brokers I network with for freight.
It was either the shipper or consignee who gave us incorrect dimensions of the freight.

More important, did he take care of the driver or o/o ?
Out of his pocket if necessary.
It’s a touchy situation. Balancing the customer relationship and the worker’s situation.
It’s really none of our business, but interesting.
Edit: Any legitimate customer will understand the costs of the TONU and agree to pay a reasonable charge.

Yep I took care of the driver for his time and efforts. Actually he wasn’t affected too bad because he told me if he hadn’t had anything heading to Indy he would’ve just deadheaded home. It just so happened he dropped 12 miles (next town east) from where pick up was!

My wife says I used better grammar before I started on EO.
I let her think EO is diminishing my skills. I think it’s just that I’m getting old.

Transferred a load from a XPO C/V last night, that had a three digit ID number. That was a lot of vans ago. Normally they retire a number, but this guy had enough snort to keep his. Now outside Raleigh, NC.
Catch-up time: Wednesday, North Side to way up the mitten of Michigan. Thursday, Alpena to Romulus. Today, a weekender to Tulsa. Feels good to keep rollin'
